Perfect and fun one-day transfer - We booked a one-day trip/transfer from Negombo to Anuradhapura with beautiful stops and a lunch along the way. Nuwan is a most friendly and careful driver with whom we gaily chatted away time. We liked his discreet and unobstrusive character. He gave us reliable information about the current political crises and a lot of useful advice for a perfect holiday. He made us feel welcome, safe and well cared for at all times. This transfer exceeded our expectations by far. Thank you, Nuwan. It was a pleasure to ride with you!

Amazing day trip with a local - We had a lovely day with Nuwan ☺️ He took us from Negombo to Sigiriya with few stops on the way. We enjoyed everything he’s shown us. His English is very good too! Recommended!

Birthday celebration - We had an amazing 10 day tour . Every day was exciting starting in Negombo , up to Anuradhapura and then worked our way down finishing in Mirissa. Our driver Sam ensured we had the best experience. Spending time with locals , cooking an exceptional meal using traditional utensils and open fire. Riding on a beautiful elephant , Sinita . A bull cart took us down the lanes and then crossing the lake on a catamaran. Even the tuc tuc carried us through Kandy. Every day we gained more knowledge about the religion and temples . History of the island is captivating and draws you in to read more about the area. National parks are outstanding and the birdlife endemic. We couldn't have had a better trip and will certainly be going back . Thankyou to an incredible team who genuinely look after their customers.

My first trip to Sri Lanka !! - This was my first ever international trip and I chose Sri Lanka as I have always been fascinated by it.I visited the country with my friends. One of my friend had a contact of Susa and that's how we finalized our itinerary with Blessrilanka Tours. Right from the start of the trip DIMUTHU( our guide) made sure we were comfortable. He had a hindi song's playlist playing already in the van when he came to pick us up..and that really shows how much you think about your guests.He made sure we make use of each day well so that we cover as many beautiful places. DIMUTHU was very well informed about the places we wanted to visit and helped us getting a guide, shopping and took us to restaurants within our budget. Thank you very much for this amazing experience. Great job guys !!

Fantastic service - My wife & I had booked a car with them after Madu had recommended us their name for our 9 day trip to the island. We were lucky that for the first 6 days Susa, himself drove us around in his Prius. I cannot stress enough on how hospitable Susa was to both me & my wife through out the trip. He was caring and gave us valuable suggestions throughout our trip and while in Ella, he helped us to track a doctor when I had needed one for an emergency. Susa is well traveled and has worked around the world and I will never forget his hospitality. He told us that he rarely does these tours himself and we were extremely lucky to have him with us for the major part of our trip. For the last 3 days, he had to leave and we got his driver- Sampath (Kingsley) to accompany us and he was very sweet and informative as well. I thank them for making our journey across their country a learning and enriching experience I would vouch for Susa and his travel team and recommend them to all the visitors. Cheers, Sachin

Fantastic company! Trusting :) - I have had several wonderful experiences with this company in the past few days and couldn’t recommend them enough. We drove from Negombo to Wilpattu with their taxi service and then onto Trincomalee. Our driver Nuwan was great/ very sweet and madd us feel very safe and well taken care of. He even stopped for us to see some elephants at a near by festival. We also organized a safari in Wlpattu through this company. Everything was better than perfect. We will be using Bles tours again on our trip! Best prices and easy to book and communicate!!!

Cancelled with no explanation - I attempted to book this tour and it was cancelled by the operator five minutes later. I thought there must have been a mistake, as the site was still showing availability for the day I wished to book. I tried to book a second time, and again it was cancelled with no explanation. Unacceptable service.
